Hey, my name is Colleen and I have never in all my life struggled with my weight. That is until I had my daughter almost three years ago. I got stuck in a deep depression for about 2 years which I just recently came out of. Now it is just time for me to get past me. I need to push through the walls of my thoughts, my body image and so much more. But it is okay! I am up to the challenge!!!

I need to push through the walls of my thoughts, my body image and so much more. But it is okay! I am up to the challenge!!!

My Goals:
Not just lose weight but to be fit and healthy. With so much good healthy foods out there I want to eat those things that benefit my mind and body. I want my daughter to grow up loving fitness and nutrition.

My Program:
I am choosing healthier food choices and counting calories. I have a workout program that I can use at home or in a gym. I am working on getting my husband on the same page...not so easy!

Other Information:
I can do ALL things through Christ who gives me strength!

I'm still really struggling with alcohol. I've been "partying". I re-read my blogs about alcohol and your comments. That helped. I've gained a couple pounds back that I had lost when I wasn't drinking. I was able to resist all day and evening Sunday after drinking Friday and Saturday night. Well that's one day - a little start. I don't drive or get into trouble when I drink but I know I won't lose any weight if I keep consuming an extra 1000 calories in alcohol ! I appreciated your encouragement you gave me. Maybe you could say a little prayer for me. (I changed my name to "Green-Eyed-Lady") Any advice you could give me would be appreciated. God Bless You on your journey.

Thank you for your comments on my blog about "No alcohol". I really appreciate you writing. I am "turning over a new leaf" so to speak, losing weight and getting more active. I will need to get some smaller clothes - a wonderful problem to have. Thank you again. Take Care and God Bless.
